In the lower part of "Lunar Subterrane B5", there is a room I have provided a screenshot of.

The odds of getting a group of Pinkpuffs are quite rare, however (something like 1/16000, or 1/64000)... I am too tired to search for the correct number in my hundreds of pages on FF4 data... I have posted a post nearly a year ago describing everything... I will reply in a couple of days with the actual odds...

Yes, in my opinion, walking in this small room for hours and hours is worth the trouble... You can get a PinkTail, which you can trade for the Adamant Armor... This armor is *worth* it...

If you're playing the PSX version of FF4, you can use an alert item to summon some pink puffs, but even if you do fight and beat them, the chances of getting a pink tail is pretty slim. But when you do, it is indeed worth it.

What? You *can* get a PinkTail? You've gotta be kidding.
Tell me that Pink Puffs, whatever the Hell they are, come in no less than groups of 4 and every one of them ALWAYS drops a PinkTail. I mean, 1/64000?!?!?!

Nothing is worth that.

actually, its more 1/16000... i'm still trying to find the numbers... :S...
They come in groups of 5.
You can check the pages I have made for the Pinkpuff

Zyrthofar's Pinkpuff page (http://pages.videotron.com/zyrthofr/ff4hz/info/enemy/134.html)

Aaaaah... recalculated everything at last... here goes...
I still haven't double-checked the odds of encountering the Pinkpuff groups (is my memory's good, that's 1/64 for getting the rarest enemy group) and one of them dropping a pink tail is 1/16384.

Each pinkpuff has 5% chances of dropping an item, and this item has 1/64 chances of being a pinktail. (that means 1/1280 chances of dropping a pinktail). There are 5 pinkpuffs, so 5/1280 = 1/256... the odds of getting the pinkpuff group is 1/64, x 1/256, giving an average of 16384 encounters in that small room in order to get a pinktail.

Hope you follow me... :)

Btw, the Adamant armor really, really is worth the trouble.

You can think of this as levelling-up ;) you can hope to leave the room with a pink tail at level 80+.
